A VALUABLE Doc PoIsoNED-Some
fiendish individual yesterday poisoned Tip,
the thoroughbred bull terrier of Alexander
Morrison. Mr.. Morrison says he will give
800 to anyone who will give information
that will enable him to punish the indi-
vidual who administered the poison Mr..
Morrison is quite dog fancier, and has
imported some of the best, if not the very
best thoroughbreds that ever came to this
country Tip was a harmless dog one
that never molested anyone, and one of the
finest specimens of his species. 1t would
seem that some individual takes an especial
delight in killing Mr.. Morrisons thorough
breds, he having lost not less than thirty,
all of them having been poisoned, some of
them in their kennels. Tip was kept in
the back yard of a residence at Sixth and
streets and was to have been shipped this
morning on the steamer to a party on Tyler
Island. The dog poisoner is a most des-
picable wretch, and if this one is appre-
hended he will be sent to the State Prison.

evening Industrial Lodge No. 157, of this
